Stolen Money
This seems like a very obvious theme, but so far we haven't discussed what the money could symbolize. The Back to Africa Movement in the mid-20th century for African Americans is an absurd idea. How is that their home? Although life in Harlem was tough at times for blacks, it is wrong to give them false hope in a place where they would be considered more foreign then they already were. Having the money stolen from this cause shows that this movement was not meant to be. It is just as wrong to steal money as it is to try and organize the mass movement of African Americans to Africa.
